Is that the set up that he raced back in the day (pre-tubbing) and he was able to yank the fronts with that? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/shocked.gif[/img]

Sam, I will ask Jerry but AFAIK, he had a different cam, distributor, and taller gears. I posted a picture of the cam specs that he had in the car at one time on a earlier post. I'm at work so I can't see it to tell you what the spec were.

P.S. TLC Restorations (Bob Rippberger) along with Jerry will be showing this car at the MCACN show this November.

Sam, I was at a car show yesterday with Jerry. He said he the car had a Crane Cam (621/646), Edelbrock TR-2 intake, headers and, here's the kicker, 5.36 gears.


Here are a couple of pictures of our cars at the car show.
